We keep waiting for the other guys to implode. We keep asking the media when they are going to expose them and the media asks *us* when will we give them something to cover...

Who here is good at opposition research on these so-called "fiscal conservatives"?

The problem is, RP is too much of a gentleman to go on the attack himself.

Are there any scallywags on this board who would do a little research on the opponents "pristine" records as executives? It needs to be done.

If you're one of those who keeps wondering what little "extra" you can do... well, this is my idea if anyone wants to accept the challenge.

Hillary already has a huge building full of opposition research on Giuliani, which is why she and Bill are salivating about him being the nominee. There is a reason that he dropped out of the Senate race before it really got started: he is damaged goods and even hiding behind of all those who died on 9/11 is not enough to prevent his eventual outing as a horrible, corrupt, power-hungry, lying authoritarian.

There is a ton of dirt on all the candidates, the media simply needs to pick up on it. And I agree, they wont do that until the "top tier" candidates start calling each other out, because then they'll have no choice but to do so.

Check out signature. There is already a lot of damning stuff on Giuliani. The person who wrote the blog (Christopher X. Brodeur (http://www.youtube.com/user/TouchingYou)) was going to write a book but unfortunately can't because the publisher wasn't good enough. There are still Wayne Barrett's writing though (e.g. Grand Illusion: The Untold Story of Rudy Giuliani and 9/11 (http://www.amazon.com/Grand-Illusion-Untold-Story-Giuliani/dp/0060536616/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-1894545-6475148?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1191992435&sr=1-1)) and tons of other stuff on the net. Your typical voter is too lazy though and wont do any research for himself or herself.
